!!! Four very hungry hatchlings!!

May 21st - 2015
A quick visit to check in on the status oft the William Osler hospital peregrines this afternoon yielded some very good news indeed. I guess I couldn’t have picked a better time to drop in, as the moment that we opened the door and turned around the corner to take a look at the camera monitor, the resident adult female was right in the middle of an afternoon feeding with FOUR HATCHLINGS in full view!!
CONGRATULATIONS are certainly in order!
After carefully taking into consideration what I observed live on the flat screen monitor and looking closely at the photos (sadly although not the greatest photos), it would appear that the hatchlings are approx. 8 to 10 days old.
In consideration with this, it would appear that the optimum banding time frames will be some time between and second week of June.
Stay tuned………..
